“The Real Frights of Halloween Night in Bismarck and Mandan”

Here are 5 tips on how to avoid some notoriously ( a few of these may be rumors by the way ) creepy things or traditions on Halloween night in Bismarck/Mandan

1) Watch out for the ghost or ghosts who think it's funny to throw a pumpkin at your head off the Bismarck Capitol building...

...maybe a good idea, IF you happen to be walking close by, is to wear your Minnesota Vikings helmet

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2) Let the "black cat" walk by you ( Please don't feed it any candy )

Even if it's YOUR cat, just lock him or her inside the house - they will try and swipe your butterfinger.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3) TRY and ignore the Zombie walking across the street

Most of these so-called Zombies are just plain old worn-out-looking men who were dragged along shopping with their wives all day long. You may see a whole pack of them, so merely just step aside and let them pass.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4) The EVEN creepier neighbor dressed up like a clown

This is THE one person who creeps you out not only on Halloween but on any other time you happen to have a 20-second conversation with them - "Living The Dream" - and "No Worries" are the ONLY words you'll hear from this CLOWN's mouth

5) Aaron Rodgers - OR anyone who dresses up like him...

Ordinarily, I would tell you to go tackle him, but you might cause an injury - and then you'll hear him cry about it all season long.

So there you have it - some of these CREEPY things are out there - waiting to scare you on Halloween night in BisMan.
